Katrine's Dart
(Alteration)

Range:  20 feet
Components:  V, S, M
Duration:  Instantaneous
Casting Time:  1
Area of Effect:  One creature
Saving Throw:  Negates

This causes a small cylindrical object (splinter, dart, needle, etc.) to become a flaming dart which will strike the desired target. If the target fails the saving throw, the dart does 1d4 damage per level. This spell is overall weaker than magic missile, but more versatile in that the caster need not see the target in order to hit it. As long as the target is within range, and the caster has some way of distinguishing it (whatever's causing that smell around the corner, or the orc guard behind the cracked door), the dart will strike the target. This is particularly effective in sheer darkness. It is cast by muttering arcane words while tossing the cylindrical object in the initial direction the dart will take.
